WOODRUFF: As we reported a little while ago in our blog segment, the Internet is abuzz with reaction to comments by New York Democratic Congressman Maurice Hinchey. The congressman over the weekend shared his views about the now disputed CBS News report about President Bush's Air National Guard service. Representative Maurice Hinchey is with me now, he joins us from Albany, New York.
Congressman Hinchey, what exactly did you say on Saturday at this town meeting in Ithaca?
REP. MAURICE HINCHEY (D), NEW YORK: Well, Judy, what I said came in response to a question from one of my constituents. There were about 100 people there. And they asked some questions about media manipulation. They were concerned about the issue of Armstrong Williams, for example, people being hired by this administration to pretend that they were giving objective news and information but were really putting forth the point of view of the administration rather than doing it objectively. And also the issue with Mr. Gannon, who was admitted to the White House press corps but who was not a legitimate press person, and was there just to throw softballs to the president.
And then the issue of the CBS Dan Rather event came up, and I said that there were false documents or documents which were falsified and presented as being accurate and there was a question as to where those documents came from. And in the context of the discussion I suggested that -- my theory was that I wouldn't be surprised if it came from the White House political operation, headed up by Karl Rove.
WOODRUFF: Well, I'm reading here a transcript of what you said, you said: "I have my own beliefs about how that

Rove is everywhere.
How can the people of New York elect these pea brains?
Rather et al, are still just as guilty, even if true. Because for this to work, the memos would have to have been outrageous, obvious forgeries, so the public would be convinced. (They were, BTW). I can't figure out the dem talking points, though: 1. Not proven dox are forgeries, may be genuine. 2. Very good forgeries, fed to poor, unsuspecting Rather, for a set up. No. 2 reminds me of Animal House when Delta House fished 'planted' fake test out of dumpster to cheat with.
Wait till you see Hillary on the 700 Club giving her testimonial. I am an evil genius.

Here's hoping you will change your mind and run for the presidency. I will work for you, unless you want me to do a "Sandy Burglar" action for you like Clinton asked Sandy Pantload to do. My pants are too tight!
Keep in touch!
Yes......... but I will dismantle the U.N. on my own with the help of Janet Reno.
You most likely would like to know how this would work. Too bad. Let me just say Janet has the names of all the .............. no, never mind.
Kofi is TOAST!
I know about the Reno angle. But it is trumped up. The old hag can't remember a thing.
"The Fortunate Son" campaign should have been INDICTABLE...odd that the Kerry campaign started putting it up on their web site just before the memos came out.....
Mr V-Pres,
could you please 'Leahy' a few more of those cheesebrain donks in the senate ? barbie boxer would be a great place to start.
thanks,

It amazes me that that chicken-necked, sour-faced, lip-smacking Woodruff even has a job on TV. She must know some bad stuff about her boss. She has no ratings, so whatever is said on her show wouldn't count for beans if it weren't repeated on this web site. I think we should ignore everything CNN broadcasts. Why give them the audience on the web that they sorely lack in the ratings?
When is that pig Boxer up for reelection?
PS: Just call me Dick
thanks, dick...please tell lynne hello for me :)
Will do!
Dick
Great poster! LOL
